"Do you really want to know the whereabouts of Ji Wujiang?"
Just when Jiang Li scolded Jiang Linglong, a faint voice resounded throughout the entire pilgrimage hall.
When everyone heard the sound, they all looked upward in awe.
Ji Luochen was seen sitting on the dragon chair with an indifferent expression, looking at Jiang Linglong quietly with a pair of majestic eyes.
"Of course I want to know, because he is my biological flesh and blood. Tell me quickly, where is Wujiang now?"
Jiang Linglong said impatiently when she heard that Ji Luochen was going to tell him Ji Wujiang's whereabouts.
Ji Luochen said with a sneer: "Not only will I tell you his whereabouts, but I will also send you to see him so that you mother and son can be reunited."
Hearing these words, Eunuch Chen, who was standing next to Ji Luochen, couldn't help but tremble because he knew that the emperor had murderous intentions.
Everyone in the entire hall heard the hidden meaning of Ji Luochen's words, but Jiang Linglong, who was obsessed with it, did not hear it.
Jiang Li also slowly closed his eyes. If Jiang Linglong had not come to make noise in the court, perhaps with their Jiang family's status, she could have been saved, but it was simply impossible now.
As an emperor, being insulted like this in the court, and in front of all the civil and military officials, even if the emperor was incompetent, he would not just let it go.
Moreover, this emperor is still a ruthless person no matter how you look at it.
"Your son was secretly executed by me last night. He colluded with the Demon Cult to assassinate me. This crime has already been punished by the nine tribes. I want to make a contribution to the great Zhou Dynasty in the Jiang family and do not want to make this matter public. But now it seems that, You don’t want to leave any dignity for your Jiang family.”
"Okay, now that you know the whereabouts of your son, I also promised you that I will send you to see him. Do you have any last words to say?"
After finishing speaking, Ji Luochen looked at Jiang Linglong with cold eyes and a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Impossible, how could my son die like this?"
"You are an unprincipled and ignorant king. You started fighting against your brothers just after you ascended the throne. Why did the late emperor pass the throne to you? I have a foolish king like you in Zhou Dynasty, so why worry about being prosperous?"
At this moment, Jiang Linglong seemed to have no scruples anymore and scolded Ji Luochen directly.
"Don't you shut up yet."
Jiang Li knew that if Jiang Linglong was allowed to continue her nonsense, the Jiang family might not be able to withstand the pressure.
Although the current Great Zhou Dynasty has gone downhill, it is still a dynasty and the ruler of the world. If Ji Luochen really wants to touch the Jiang family, the Jiang family will only end up destroyed in the end.
But before Jiang Li could finish his words, he saw a flash of sword light in the dark, slitting Jiang Linglong's throat.
When the sword light appeared, Jiang Li had already reacted, but he did not stop him. He was a person who took the overall situation into consideration. If Jiang Linglong's death could make Ji Luochen calm down, it would be worth it.
This is the style of a big family, leaving the small family to care for everyone.
Looking at Jiang Linglong lying in a pool of blood, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill rising from the soles of their feet.
This new emperor is really a decisive person.
An ordinary person might still need to worry about the Jiang family, but this new emperor killed Jiang Linglong without hesitation.
The one who took action was Duanshui among the Six Sword Slaves.
Although Jiang Linglong has the strength of a grand master, it is not difficult at all for the Six Sword Slaves who control various assassination methods.
This is also the effect of Ji Luochen's shock.
After killing Jiang Linglong, Ji Luochen looked at Jiang Li again.
"Prime Minister Zuo, do you have anything to say now?"
"Ji Wujiang colluded with the Demon Cult to assassinate me. If your Jiang family doesn't give me an explanation, then don't blame me for not remembering our old relationship."
Jiang Li took a deep breath and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I, the Jiang family, really know nothing about Ji Wujiang's collusion with the demon sect, but I, the Jiang family, have an unshirkable responsibility. I am willing to step back and put the shadow on my head." , to dispel His Majesty’s anger.”
After speaking, Jiang Li took off the official hat on his head, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply to Ji Luochen.
Eunuch Chen walked over very sensibly and took away Jiang Li's official hat. Jiang Li was kneeling on the ground with trembling lips and eyes closed.
"Okay, let's stop here for today's morning meeting. Eunuch Chen, I ordered people to clean up the place."
After speaking, Ji Luochen took Gai Nie and left.
But Yun Xiao, who had been watching from the sidelines, felt as if a rabbit had died and a fox had died.
When the new emperor takes over, his actions will probably be far from that.
It is the Jiang family that is being dealt with now. I am afraid that if there is an opportunity in the future, my Yun family will not let it go.
Now the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty is decentralized. If the new emperor wants to centralize power, he must rectify the court. Cleaning up the Jiang family is just the first step. Everything he does today is to beat them.
And on the other side.
On the official road leading to the imperial city.
An old Taoist priest with gray hair, a hundred years old, and an immortal spirit was walking leisurely.
Just when passing by a motorcade, I couldn't help but be surprised.
"I wonder who your honor is coming?"
In the motorcade, an old man's voice slowly sounded.
This convoy was none other than the ancestor of the Jiang family who rushed from Jiangnan to the Imperial City overnight.
The ancestor of the Jiang family is named Jiang Yunsheng. He once served the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty. When those three emperors were alive, Jiang Yunsheng was a very popular minister.
Later, because he was too old, he resigned and retired. However, although he was no longer in the court, his prestige was still there.
As long as Jiang Yunsheng said a word, countless ministers in the DPRK and the Central Government would have to serve him front and back.
"I can't say that I'm a noble person, I'm just a wandering cloud, but my fellow Taoist is very noble, which surprised me even though I'm an experienced Taoist."
call! ! !
A breeze blew by, and an old man wearing brocade clothes appeared in front of Zhang Sanfeng with extraordinary bearing. Jiang Yunsheng looked around and couldn't help but feel shocked when he saw Zhang Sanfeng.
In his opinion, the old Taoist priest in front of him had blood and essence as strong as the sun, and the power contained in his body was even more terrifying. Once it broke out, it would probably burn people instantly.
Such masters were something he had never heard of or seen.
Taking a detailed look at the masters from all over the world, this old Taoist priest is definitely the top one.
Then he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart. If he could win over this person, then the Jiang family would be as stable as Mount Tai, whether in the court or in the world, and no one could shake it.
“I don’t know where your Majesty is going, how about we walk together for a while?”
When Zhang Sanfeng heard Jiang Yunsheng's invitation, he couldn't help but shake his head with a smile: "I'm used to being a Taoist, so I won't bother my fellow Taoist."
Hearing Zhang Sanfeng's words, Jiang Yunsheng couldn't help but feel disappointed. How could he not be disappointed when such a powerful man couldn't be used by him? However, he still wanted to win over Zhang Sanfeng.
"Your Majesty, in this world, it is very difficult to practice hard by yourself. As long as your Majesty is willing, our Jiang family is willing to do everything we can to help you. As long as you need it, I can do it with my thousands of years of experience in the Jiang family. Wouldn't it be easier to find it for you than it is for you to practice alone, I still hope that you can think about it carefully."
Zhang Sanfeng shook his head with a faint smile: "My opportunity does not lie with you, Fellow Daoist. Fellow Daoist, it's better not to waste your efforts..."
"Then what is the opportunity for your breakthrough? My Jiang family alone has half of the luck of the Confucian sect, and the family inheritance has been passed down for thousands of years. Whether it is natural treasures, earthly treasures or panacea, maybe my Jiang family can also provide it. What kind of opportunity does your honor provide you with?"
Zhang Sanfeng remained unmoved and said: "Fellow Taoist, please don't waste your efforts. I say the opportunity is not with your Jiang family. Even if your Jiang family has ten thousand years of foundation, it is impossible for you to help me."
